The Union Health Center was opened in 1913 by the International Ladies’ Garment Workers’ Union to serve its mostly Jewish and Italian immigrant membership. Like Henry Street, the UHC believed that workers’ rights included a right to medical care and safe working conditions. It is still in operation today.
